- Abstract
- en_US This is a valuable little book. It had better be at the prices I paid for both copies! First, it presents a rare vernacular version of Romulus. There are eighty-six fables here on 92 pages, including an untitled last fable about the statue of Aesop. There is a T of C at the end. Secondly, this book features the the lovely work of Josef Hegenbarth. These whispy, evocative works are fine, and the book includes a number of them. Typical and good are those on the thief and the dog (26), the bald man and the flea (35), and the beaten ass (59). Hegenbarth takes a different view of LM here, putting the lion on his back (22). There is a Nachwort from the publisher. Hegenbarth's work is presented again in the 1966 Die Diebe und der Hahn. I will keep the extra copy in my little reference library.
